Scottish BBC licence tax payers contributed £313m last year.¹

Amongst other things, for that, they expect a flagship news report three times a day to alert them and to advise them on what is happening and what they should be aware of. It’s called public service broadcasting.

How many, typically, do watch for that reason?

Around 240 000. ²

So, how much are Scots paying, each, to be able to access that public service?

Just over £1 300 for, of course, ‘mince’ as media gurus say.
